I know the Mitsuwa you're talking about. I saw it there last week. That store's prices (not Mitsuwa, but the toy store next to the book store) are INCREDIBLY over priced. Don't by it from them. I've seen that set for a lot cheaper.
Seriously, 20 bucks for a sofubi? 140 for Castle Doran?!
Well, if you can't find it elsewhere and you're ok with the price then I'd say go for it! It's been there forever, so I doubt anyone will snatch it up. Personally, I've had my eye on those Akumaizer-3 Sofubi, and they NEVER go down in price. Someday I might crack and buy them, despite the 16 dollar price tag ;3;
well, i just wanna know if they still have an SH kiva there, or other Souchaku Henshin figures, i'm quite interested with that line, i wanna customize them
plastic feet lose the ankle joint, making it harder to pose a figure with the feet apart ( Hyper kabuto's hyper shooting pose comes to mind :disappoin)
Plastic feet don't cause poor balance. Poor design, where it doesn't accommodate for plastic feet and ankles, is the issue. Ultra-Act has never used diecast, but the ankle design on their figures, especially Baltan, is superb. They're even more articulate than the ankles of any SHF I've seen.
In the first promo shots of OOO's Tatoba he originally had the diecast feet with the ankle joint in the first pics of him. Now in the new photos he has plastic ball jointed feet. So I wouldnt be surprised if once Garo gets closer to the release date we'll see the same change.
Unlike OOO, where the product page never listed him as including diecast, only the assumption the feet were based on the old pics and Tamashii event appearances, Garo's page still includes zinc as part of his materials. With his very high retail cost, I don't see that changing.

Mmmm...I dunno if they have an SH Kiva. Probably not; I hardly see Kiva figs when I go into that store. I DID luck out years ago when I bought Final Form Rides. lol
The store is at Edgewaters. A bit past Bridgewater (or Edgewater IIRC...) Commons (with the Barnes and Noble, Target, Outback, and McDonalds) with NYC on your right side. If you go there any time soon, can you check the price for that BeatChaser 2000?
